I wanted to try to create something like this with chat GPT but I gave up after 3 hours.. I was a bit down because of the lost time and then I found this gem! Really love it... deserves many more upvotes - especially when you work on content pages with a team.

Very helpful

I tried many notes plugin, and this one is the most simple, and straight forward one, that simply do the job. Thank you!

So good. I had to write my first review

Kuba, this is the most amazing idea (it deserves more than 5 starts) Unofficially I give you 10 (**********). I don't understand how WordPress didn't add a simple notes field like this before. I'm using a Theme that allows me to use different editors, that is crazy, but it helps as some editors allow elements that other editors don't implement, and it was a mess keeping track of which page was done with wich editor. Now, I just add this to the Note. Well done. FYI. WordPress says that this plugin hasn't been tested on the latest WP version (5.8.1). So far it is working as intended.

Simple and useful.
